Quality Reliability R&D Engineer

Solidigm is seeking an experienced HVM (High Volume Manufacturing) Product Quality & Reliability Engineer based in Taiwan to own the ongoing quality and reliability monitoring of Solidigm SSD products manufactured at our ODM partners (e.g., PTI, Pegatron). This role is a peer to our existing Taiwan HVM QRE product owners and will take product ownership for a defined set of SSD product lines through their full HVM lifecycle — from PRQ/SRA ramp through End-of-Life. 

The successful candidate will serve as the on-the-ground reliability owner at the ODM, driving Ongoing Reliability Test (ORT) execution, OQM+ monitoring, failure analysis, and cross-functional escalation to protect Solidigm product quality and the customer experience. 

 

Required Qualifications 

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics, Reliability Engineering, or a related technical field. 
• 3+ years of quality/reliability engineering experience in semiconductor, SSD, NAND, or electronic component manufacturing (HVM environment strongly preferred), and prior experience as a product QRE owner driving customer-facing quality escalations and FA reviews. 
• Solid understanding of SSD product architecture — NAND flash, controller/firmware behavior, PCIe/NVMe interface, and common failure modes (asserts, IO errors, NAND defects). 
• Working knowledge of reliability test methodology and standards — JEDEC JESD218/JESD219, ORT/ELFR, MTBF/AFR calculation, and Weibull-based failure-rate analysis. 
• Knowledge of databases, particularly mySQL and SQL, is essential.
• Hands-on failure analysis experience and structured problem-solving. 
• Experience working directly with ODM/contract manufacturers, ideally on-site in Taiwan. 
• Proficiency with data analysis and reporting tools (Excel, Power BI, JIRA, Confluence). 
• Fluent in English and Mandarin Chinese (written and spoken) to interface with global Solidigm teams and local Taiwan ODM partners. 
• Direct experience with data-center / enterprise SSD products and hyperscale customer quality requirements. 
• Experience with HW failure analysis on PCBA, and eFA acknowledge for log retriving/reading.
• Familiarity with ODM SMT manufacturing flow and test flow. 
• Statistical tools (JMP, Python) for reliability trend analysis. 
• Hands-on experience with tester setup, debugging, and preventive maintenance.
• Strong vendor communication and coordination skills for tester support and issue resolution.
